Summer is here, and the weather is so hot that the earth seems to melt. Jumping into the water and playing in the water is indeed a good way to cool down. Many owners think that dogs are born with the ability to swim, and just throw them into the water and they will swim freely in the water. Although dogs are talented in swimming, if they have no swimming experience, are weak, or have not swim for a long time, they may drown. Dog owners should not take the risk!

What should dogs pay attention to before and after swimming? Now share the explanation from veterinarian Li Sijia (former project manager of the Welfare Department of the Hong Kong Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals): Things to note when pets swim to cool off.

Swimming for dogs has many benefits, including promoting cardiovascular health, increasing muscle strength, relieving heat, enhancing the relationship with the owner, etc. Take advantage of the hot summer and take your dog to swim!
